Cold sore

ugh! I have a cold sore. I’ll head to the chemist tomorrow and ask a pharmacist but I’m wondering if anyone has any suggestions for what we can and can’t use? Any natural remedies? Or has anyone used Compeed stickers or Zovirax?

Lysine tablets are another option. Good for avoiding breakouts (as soon as you feel the tingle) and for faster healing of the sore. Made by all the usual vitamin brands. My obgyn said to avoid the “double strength” ones.
